Slip and Fall

When you are at a place of business or visiting the apartment of a friend or relative, it’s reasonable to assume the property owner keeps their grounds maintained in an effort to limit the chances of injury due to a slip and fall. At Aneke Law Offices, we believe that property owners who fail to provide adequate safety measures and proper upkeep should be held fully responsible when others are injured. We will fight on your behalf to obtain rightful compensation when you have been injured due to a property owner’s negligence. A slip and fall accident is one of the most common types of personal injury case. Furthermore, it’s typical that they are easily preventable.

Some examples of the negligence responsible for slip and fall accidents include:

• Little to no effort was made to secure a safe premises of the property.
• Lack of warning in cases of potential hazards (no warning signs on wet floors).
• Prior knowledge of unsafe conditions but taking no steps to make the appropriate repairs. Some examples of dangerous property conditions are:
  • Uneven floorboards
  • Loose or damaged handrails
  • Inadequate lighting
  • Wet floors
  • Damaged, ripped, or torn carpeting
  • Cracked sidewalks and uneven pavement

If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident on another person’s property, and can prove that the property owner acted in negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. Common injuries can include:
